Hello
Attached are a few pics I took this last weekend.
The first was taken from the art museum steps.
The following 3 are from the Spring garden street bridge.
These are SW of center city.
Please offer any suggestions for improvement.

Downloads are much better
Thanks

The only suggestion I can make is to get rid of that white rod in all of them. To me, it is distracting.

Thanks,
The white rod is a major part of the building. It does have some structure that can be seen with the eye but washes out with the long exposure.

I'm just now getting ready for the morning shoot at sunrise and noticed my circular polarizer is on the lens.
I must have forgotten to remove it after the day prior shoot.
The pics above were taken with it on.
Wonder what change it made if any.

The white rod is the lights on the new Comcast tower.

Hi,
The white rod you object to is Phila's newest tall building; Comcast Center 2, a building by international famous architecture firm Sir Norman Foster [London based office]. I am not a huge fan of that building and also wonder about the white "stick" which makes it the tallest building between NYC and DC.
You can fake reality by removing it in photos, but it is here to stay.
